The Houston Livestock and Rodeo is coming to town. Time to pull out those jeans, cowboy hats and boots and gear up! Cowboys and everything related to them form the crux of this 20-day long extravaganza in Houston. From Ford-150's to the famous Hannah Montana, Houston offers them all. Lasso a cow or a cowboy, enjoy BBQ the way it should be done, two-step to country music and shop for the best livestock in town!

It is here and we are ready for it! The parade through downtown Houston to kick off events is on March 1st followed by the World Championship Bar-B-Que Contest at the Reliant Arena. The other events start from March 3rd. Details about this year's rodeo are here.

There are numerous packages and individual tickets for the events happening these 20 days. We are picking up the FunPass! package that includes unlimited admission through the run of the Show to the World’s Championship Bar-B-Que Contest (includes free chopped brisket sandwich meal), Carnival Reliant Center and Reliant Arena to visit the livestock and horse shows, shopping and food booths. It sounded like a good deal coz we really were not planning to sit through the country music concerts and we live quite close to Reliant Arena. So we are ready to Rodeo and more about the Rodeo coming up soon!
